Be what you want to be.

One thing most of us know and believe is ' Do what you want to do. Its your life, live it the way you want to' , but how many of us really follow it? We are always bothered and affected by the perceptions of others, which might not be wrong, but we forget that at the end of the day what will make u haapy is not their perceptin but your own. And in the end happiness is all that matters.

The beautiful road

As I am walking down this road,
this thought suddenly arose,
why is it so dark and lonely here?
Why can’t I even see the garden,
that always existed down the lane there?

This is the most beautiful road,
I have ever known.
Then why am I feeling so weird here ?
as if I am forcefully thrown.
There are flowers all around,
but they don’t seem to smile.
Next to me is this flowing river
then why am I walking thirsty for miles?

This road is the same, it’s beauty is the same.
Something seems to be wrong with my perception.
Suppose, I have grown insane.
I know it’s beautiful, why am I scared in accepting?
I know it will make me happy, then why am I knowingly ignoring?

May be its just too late or may be it is not.
May be I should listen to my heart or may be I should not.
But ya I am scared, to smell those flowers, to touch that cold water,
I know they are there, I can feel their affection,
I don’t want to realize them and break my illusion.
